The End of Legal Writing?

Is writing legal memo an art threatened by extinction? In the age of email, SMS, podcasts, videoconferencing and Web 2.0, doesn't the traditional legal memo look like an outdated, outpaced channel of communication? And who in the corporate world has the time and the stability of mind to concentrate on more than a few lines anyway? Aren't most in-house counsel preferring a phone call from their attorney rather than a written memo?
